bluetooth turning OFF when making a call

hi ppl
i use an austrian mda2 w/ ROM 1.6.00GER and ExtROM 1.60.07 together with a parrot ck3000 handsfree in my car.
i use the original bt stack w/o ANY changes.
making calls and taking calls is no problem at all and works most of the times.
the problem is as follows: when i enter the car, bt turned on, and also profile says "BT Headset ist eingeschaltet (means bt headset is turned ON)", and the n i want to place a call, the call is not routed over the handsfree. explanation is simple: when i change back to "today" - bt is turned OFF !!!
so my conclusion: everytime bt is used for the first time after disconnetion from the handsfree, it just turns OFF when it should connect. after i turn bt on by hand again it works w/o any problem. ('till i come back to the car of course - and everything starts again)
this is very annoying....
so has anyone any hint what to do? i wouldn't really mind updating to an english rom - if i just knew that that does work.
thanks,

when i use this one
http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
my device turn bluetooth on when i call even though i dont have a bluetooth headset maybe it'll help you

thanks rudegar
i know that stack by TOWA. unfortunately that does not work at all here
i'd love to use it, but w/ this stack my handsfree is reconized sometimes, sometimes i have to pair the devices every time i start my car, and i can NEVER place calls with the combination mda2 with networx bt manager installed.
maybe someone has the same experiences and can report them

Bluetooth Tools & Nokia Handsfree Advice?

I'm aware of the various BT issues with the XDA II, and therefore installed BT Tools thinking it may allow me to use my handfree kit. Unfortunately I'm experiencing problems and not sure if this is me doing something wrong or there is a problem with the software. Basically the XDA II does not route either incoming or outgoing calls via the handfrees unit. I have do the following:-
1. Installed the latest BT Tools.
2. Created a bond with the Nokia Handfree kit, when prompted for the BT profile (the BT Tools icon screen) I select headset only.
3. Enable BT on the XDA II
When I make or receive a call is there any button or menu I should be selecting to enable the handsfree unit?

From the Today screen, make sure bluetooth headset mode is enabled.

And if Bluetooth Headset Mode does not appear on the today screen:
Start -> Settings -> Today -> Items and make sure Profile is checked. That will put the headset mode switch on the Today screen.

Thanks for the suggestions, I must admit I had missed the headset profile on the Today screen.
Even with the device paired, BT enabled & the Headset enable neither incoming or outgoing calls are routed through the handsfree unit.
Any other suugestions welcomed...

With the new bluetooth tools you need to transfer the call to the headset...
I find the best way when dialing is to have the phone ready to dial, then i hit the answer button on the headset causing the phone to dial & transfer sound to the headset @ the same time.
When answering the call the headset should ring and you press the answer button on the headset to recieve the call.

When you say press the headset button are you referring to the headset icon on the XDA or the Nokia handsfree button?
If its the Nokia button , I'll try this tomorrow, if not, then the icon does not ring and when receiving a call it is covered by the incoming call window.
Many thanks...

the nokia headset button

Yep thats what I thought, I think I can confidently say there is a compatability issue with using the current version of BT Tools with the new Nokia CK-7W handsfree kit.
I've read the user manual for the handfree kit and that refers to switching/transferring the call between the BT devices using the button. The unit clicks as if there's something happening, but no call is heard, the unit works perfectly with a BT phone connected both Nokia & Motorola.

I would try uninstalling pocket BT tools - for using a headset it is of no additional value anyway. I do not have it installed and have never had any problems making or receiving calls with my SE HBH-30 headset.

Try using the earlier version of bluetooth tools, make sure you uninstall the version you have and also unbond/remove bluetooth pairings, rebond after successful install.

Pocket Bluetooth Tools is perfect! This is what I'm looking for, except I can't figure out how to listen to music thru my bluetooth headset.
Thanks for the great tool though, now I can make calls with my headset.

The BIG advantage is battery life and not having to re-enable the headset profile each time you switch on the phone! With both PBT and/or Profile not displayed, I also get more Today real estate to play with.
With BT on all the time, I'm lucky to get four hours usage out of my Xda II, with PBT turning it off after five minutes the time can go up to almost seven. Sure, there is a short lag between call coming in and the headset (HBH-65) ringing but I can live with that and it even works well with Pocket Zen Phone. I also like the last number redial facility it adds to my headset. PBT rocks!

I found one problem with this program. My device won't automatically turn off after installing this tool. The backlight turns off, but not the device after certain minutes set. Who do I report the problem too.

i have got this problem to carnt get the xda i to connect to my car blue tooth hands free kit it finds the kit but nothing gome on guy get ya thinking heads on n help :idea: to revolve this problem

Hi everyone,
well, I got the same problem :x with my XDA2, also called Qtek 2020, and Nokia carkit 112. It just does'nt work, even with BT tools. But I wonder how you get the icon screen while connecting to your Nokia carkit...cause mine is going straight back to the "Bluetooth connected devices" screen. I only got the icon screen, enabling the profile selection, while connecting to my Nokia 6310i phone.
Let's hope that HTC is gonna come up with Handsfree profile soon...
Regards to all, special ones to our OZ friends!! Mates, I really enjoyed living in Sydney, even if Italy is quite convenient as well.

tytn and BT

Is there any possible way to repair the BT annoying thing?
I've got a Parrto BT set in my car and the tytn disconnects all the time, when I achieve the connections I cannot transfer my contacts...
Thanks for your help

Hi,
Which model of Parrot car kit is it? I use the CK3100 (the one with the LCD) and it works except for the usual TyTN switching BT off when it disconnects from the Parrot after stopping the car. Sync works fine.
Might also be worth looking in the Parrot forums at http://www.driveblue.com/
Gav.

Parrot
I also have the 3100!!
When I get into the car it doesn't recognize me. I need to go to congiguration and establish the link, the it seems that it starts to sinchronize the agenda but it doesn't!!!

Hi again.
Is there any chance you have the power cables to the Parrot CK3100 the wrong way round? If that is the case then the Parrot CK3100 will forget the pairing to your phone and you will need to re-pair everytime. The easiest way to fix this is to reverse the wires at the fuse.
Basically there are 2 wires on the Parrot Parrot CK3100, one perminent to the battery for saving the memory and the other is the ignition. When the ignition goes to 12v then the Parrot CK3100 powers on and tries to connect to the phones in its pairing memory list (upto 5).
Do you know which firmware is on your Parrot CK3100? The latest is 4.15b > it's under the Advance menu.
Gav.

Don't think so
I don't think so because it worked perfectly well with my Blackberry!

Got my TyTN yesterday (had a Wizard) and so far it works just fine with my CK3100. Syncs nice and fast and connects within 10 seconds. I did install Jetware mobile extender to make the display a little better. Haven't experienced the TyTN turning BT off yet...

Hi Pablete,
Strange. I can only suggest re-pairing and updating the Parrot to the latest firmware rev.
Hi Scott,
What advantage does Jetware mobile extender give?
Gav.

Jetware changes the "network OK" to the real network name, adds signal and battery bars, adds the phone ringtone instead of the Parrot ringtone and several other cool features.

Not completely sure I understand the question? If you meant to ask if it is possible to do voice dialing in the carkit instead of the phone then head to the voice commands menu, and in the bottom you'll find an option to change where voice commands are processed; carkit or phone.

i meant when i push the parrot green button the application voice dialer switches on on my TYTN, but no beep can be heared tru the car speakers?
with the newest cyberon voice dialler i can not confirm or redial, even if used outside the car?
Any suggestions

bluetooth headset

When the headset is paired with the phone can I somehow receive a call on the phone and not on the headset or I should turn off the headset if I want to do that ?
Sorry if the answer is in the 2020 manual - didnt get it when I bought it
Thanks

If you want to answer the call with the PDA, you'd use the green button on the himalaya. If you don't press the control in the headset and get the call using the green button the audio comes out from the PDA and not from the headset.
I hope my poor english is understandable.

omg, yes I undesranded you perfectly, thanks
You just reminded me of my big problem once, somehow I ve changed digital clock to analog in the today screen. After some time I ve forget how did I do that and no matter of what I used to try clock remained analog. Digged thru the 2020 from alpha to omega, digged thru the registry... No luck. Utils, no luck. Clock remained analog.
Asked my friend, qtek user, about the problem. Guy clicked and holded the stylus on the clock for a few seconds. Menu appeared - digital or analog
Obviusly some simple solutions are not always visible to all of us
Thank you once more

ahh one more quickie please, if the headset is paired to the phone and Im a caller how can I talk to someone using the PDA not headset ?
thanks

BT headset (not work ;P )

Problem with bluetooth handsfree

Hi,
I have a Vodafone P3600 which I had unlocked and flashed to test both HTC WM5 and Faman WM6 3.3 and 3.4. I have a problem using it with my Parrot CK3100, and it's the following: devices pair perfectly, but when I leave my car and then return, most of times P3600 does not connect with handsfree. Sometimes, it does connect, but after a long time. This occurs with any OS version I have tested.
A problem with CK3100 is discarded because I have flashed it with latest software version, and it was tested with a HP RW6815.
I tried disabling power saving, setting bluetooth as discoverable, installing Jetware, but nothing made it work as it should.
I'm near to sell my P3600 and buy a new HTC Touch only to solve this problem, because I need much a handsfree working in my car.
Can any of you give a hint of what the problem could be?
Thanks.

I forgot to say that if I power on my HTC, it always connect to the Parrot. But when it's in standby sometimes connects and others no.

I have an SonyEricsson HBH-DS200 and this works unfortunately with the P3600 also in a from you described way. I tryed AWE and PDAVIET and also AX3L ROMs.
Other points and problems with BT HandsFree are:
1.) A litle icon to show that the BT HansFree is connected will be showed in the status only after the first paaring. After that, nothing shows you, that the BT HansFree is connected (and therefor can be used) or not.
2.) After a phone call the BT HandsFree will be disconnected.That meanns, that I can not hear the phone ring in the earpice. I only hear it from the P3600. I have 2 choises after that:
a.) If I push te Answer button on the P3600, the voice is on the P3600.
b.) If I push the Answer button on the BT HansFree then the voice is on the BT HansFree (but it will be disconnected after the call).
3.) The volume can not be changed if I use the BT HandsFree. That means, the volume slide bar can be moved/changed, but this has no effect to the volume in the BT HansFree.
In my opinion if the paaring is done and the BT HandsFree is switched on it should be always:
- connected
- an icon in the status line appear
- the voice in the BT HandsFree - independent if the answer button is pushed on the phone or on the BT HandsFree
For me is the BT HandsFree very imortant, and I am a litle bit disappointed, that a device for 500 Eur works that buggy with a technology that is almost 10 year old.
